Answer:

Mean= $21.5067

Median = $15.8

Standard deviation= $19.02

Coefficient of skewness= $0.8991

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean =( $4.0 +$6.0 +$7.4+ $10.6 +$12.5+ $13.6+ $15.4+ $15.8 +$16.8

+$17.4+ $19.1 +$22.3+ $37.1 +$43.2 +$81.4)/15

Mean =$ 322.6/15

Mean= $21.5067

Median= middle number

Median = $15.8

Variance=( ($4.0-.$21.5)²+( $6.0. -.$21.5)²+( $7.4 -.$21.5)²+( $10.6 -.$21.5)²+( $12.5 -.$21.5)²+( $13.6. -.$21.5)²+ ($15.4 -.$21.5)²+( $15.8 -.$21.5)²+ ( $16.8 -.$21.5)²+ ($17.4-.$21.5)² +($19.1 -.$21.5)²+ ($22.3 -.$21.5)²+ ($37.1 -.$21.5)²+ ($43.2-.$21.5)²+( $81.4-.$21.5)²)/15

Variance=$ 5424.79/15

Variance=$ 361.65

Standard deviation= √ variance

Standard deviation= √361.65

Standard deviation= $19.02

Coefficient of skewness

=3( mean-median)/standard deviation

= 3(21.5-15.8)/19.02

= 3(5.7)/19.02

= 17.1/19.02

Coefficient of skewness= 0.8991

What is the solution to the system of equations? {10x^2 - y = 48 2y = 16x^2 + 48

julsineya [31]

A graph shows the solutions to be
(x, y) = (-6, 312) or (6, 312)

To solve algebraically, remove a factor of 2 from the second equation and use that expression to substitute for y in the first equation.
10x^2 -(8x^2 +24) = 48
2x^2 = 72
x = ±√(72/2) = ±6
y = 8*36 +24 = 312

What is the equation of this line in standard form?

horsena [70]

Option B 6x-7y = -11 is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to write the equation of the given line in standard form.

The points are (1/2,2) and (3,1)

The equation used is:

$y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1})$

where m is the slope.

Finding slope :

$m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

x₁= 1/2, y₁=2, x₂=-3, y₂=-1

Putting values:

$m=\frac{-1-2}{-3-1/2} \\m=\frac{6}{7}$

Now taking point (1/2,2) and s;ope m = 6/7 finding equation:

$y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1})$

$y-2=\frac{6}{7}(x-\frac{1}{2})\\ 7(y-2)=6(x-\frac{1}{2})\\7y-14=6x-3\\7y-6x=-3+14\\7y-6x= 11\\Multiply \,\,with\,\, -1\\-7y+6x=-11\\6x-7y=-11$

So, Option B 6x-7y=-11 is correct

Two cars drive from town A to town B at constant speeds. The blue car travels 35 miles per hour and the red car travels 70 miles

ExtremeBDS [4]

We can use the formula d = rt in getting the algebraic equation for the two cars where; d = distance, r = rate, t = time.

Given:
$r_{1}$ (blue car) = 35 miles per hour
$r_{2}$ (red car) = 70 miles per hour
distance between the two towns = 140 miles
$t_{1}$ (blue car)= no. of hours the blue car travels
$t_{2}$ (red car) = no. of hours the red car travels

Linear equation for the blue car
$d=( r_{1})( t_{1})$
$140=(35)( t_{1})$
$140/35= t_{1}$
$t_{1}=4 hours$
blue car travels 4 hours from town A to town B.

Linear equation for the red car
$d=( r_{2})( t_{2})$
$140=(70)( t_{2})$
$140/70= t_{2}$
$t_{2}=2 hours$
red car travels 2 hours from town A to town B.
